Words have legal meaning. If they called it something different it would be easy to write new laws giving special rights only to people in one of the groups. By legally using the same words and terminology then you make sure that both groups are automatically covered by all future laws.

Yes like have Tax laws to help encourage people to have children. (This isn't a moral judgment)

This is a SERIOUS issue in Europe and Japan (What do you do to help your population have more children when they don't) In USA this isn't an issue YET but it is interesting to see France, Germany and Japan struggle with a huge drop in population in the near future.

You might be surprised to learn gay people can form a successful family unit, raise a heterosexual child to adulthood, and help them start their own family.
